Schaeffler Group is an engineering partner and supplier for automobile manufacturers, as well as a sponsor of the Audi Sport ABT Formula E team. If you’re familiar with Formula E, you know that this series runs on electricity. A great example of just how wild these electric race car can be comes from Schaeffler Group and its named the Schaeffler 4ePerformance Concept.

This race car concept is powered by four Formula E motors that were borrowed from the ABT Schaeffler FE01 Formula E racing car. The total output of these is 1200 PS, which is roughly 1,183.5 horsepower. Because this concept car is powered by electricity, all of its power is accessible at a moments notice, or at the push of the pedal.

Daniel Abbot, a professional racing driver in Formula E, took the Schaeffler 4ePerformance Concept out for some test runs against powerful supercars like the Audi R8, Lamborghini Huracan and Porsche 911 GT2 RS. The results were about as definitive as they could get. Click play below to see just how insane this electric car is.
